Build Me a Small Town
Gonna rent me black and yellow bulldozer
Drive straight into that grey and blue
And when Wal-Marts done I'll head to the corner
Eighth and Main and hit Starbucks too
Gonna tear down every wall they built up
Tryin' to keep Mother Nature in a cage
Til the wildflowers dance on the roadside
And a bluebird's song greats every day
Yeah I'm gonna tear it down
Oh I'm gonna tear it down
Yeah I'm gonna tear it all down
And build me a small town
Gonna take all the hate that we been feeling
And the lies we tell to drown it out
Gonna take the greed that keeps us broken
And the fear of strangers in the crowd
Yeah I'm gonna tear it down
Oh I'm gonna tear it down
Yeah I'm gonna tear it all down
And build me a small town
Gonna give everyone I know a Grandma
She'll make 'em cookies and sweet ice tea
Tell 'em everything she knows 'bout Good Lord
How He died for you and me
Yeah I'm gonna tear it down
Oh I'm gonna tear it down
Yeah I'm gonna tear it all down
And build me a small town
Drive straight into that grey and blue
And when Wal-Marts done I'll head to the corner
Eighth and Main and hit Starbucks too
Gonna tear down every wall they built up
Tryin' to keep Mother Nature in a cage
Til the wildflowers dance on the roadside
And a bluebird's song greats every day
Yeah I'm gonna tear it down
Oh I'm gonna tear it down
Yeah I'm gonna tear it all down
And build me a small town
Gonna take all the hate that we been feeling
And the lies we tell to drown it out
Gonna take the greed that keeps us broken
And the fear of strangers in the crowd
Yeah I'm gonna tear it down
Oh I'm gonna tear it down
Yeah I'm gonna tear it all down
And build me a small town
Gonna give everyone I know a Grandma
She'll make 'em cookies and sweet ice tea
Tell 'em everything she knows 'bout Good Lord
How He died for you and me
Yeah I'm gonna tear it down
Oh I'm gonna tear it down
Yeah I'm gonna tear it all down
And build me a small town
